The driver must stop at the for people to enter into from there. If he forgets and passes the miqat by one hundred kilometers, he must return with them so they can enter into ihram from the miqat.
If he does not return and they enter into ihram from their current location, then each of them owes a (sacrificial sheep) to be slaughtered in Mecca and distributed among the poor, for having neglected one of the obligatory rituals.
The judge may order the driver to pay the value of this fidyah to the ' performers, due to his negligence towards them and his preventing them from returning to the miqat.
